Though stock realistic could be good as well...
Advantage of entering this as opposed to Jonzu's tourney being...? (and don't say reliability of host :P) Edit: Wow I'm getting ninja'd a lot today

I was wondering, Should that rule even count? It was added after signups, and when they started, Joe locked the rules. I don't think that rule should count now, although if Joe is fine with it, it could count/change to 60KG if it already counts/be allowed by popular demand. I don't know. I've confused myself now (Image removed from quote.). You don't know? That really doesn't tell us anything...just do what you need to do as the tournament host. At the very least you could PM JoeBlo to make your decision. Also, that setup you have there really could kill, even with the whole spike strip gone. I remember the servo/snapper boosting boosts the speed by a long shot, and the VS could score heavy hits. Just making a point here, no shouting at me, and i don't mean to offend anyone.
Now you've confused yourself and me. :P I'm hoping that by VS you mean HS and I don't even know how the spike strip got in there. Snappers don't boost spin motors *that* much, but it's noticeable with faster motors like HP Z-teks. With RADs or Redbirds...not really. I'm not worried about the combat effectiveness of my bot, but for the viewers of the videos; I for one prefer matches where a bot doesn't have to constantly ram for the entire last half of the match just to damage the other bot's control board.

Again, Bubbleman...I really don't want to change my bot up because of a rule that was added after signups were posted, and it wasn't even agreed on or posted in the OP, you just said "maybe" a 56 KG limit would be good. If this is too generic for you, then I really don't know what isn't... (for those wondering, to meet his restriction I would have to downgrade the Z-tek to a RAD or Redbird with razors which would take away nearly all my KO potential and make every match last about a minute longer)

VB wins, called it. Just to get the first prediction in. :P

Uhhhhh exempt because it's in a spoiler and the post still conveys its message without the video? (also the rule says no pony pictures :P)

How do the splashes work? Are they supposed to be like BOTM splashes (with no text other than the name, of course)? What about size limits?

PRETTY SURE motors used for drive are called drive motors.

Do part-HS hybrids count as HS? They'd still be pretty non-generic unless a single razor on the front makes a HS into a HS/rammer hybrid...

4 Razors. =D
Nah, same number as a Pysc popup. Don't think one DDT can hold all that. :P (plus, two Snapper IIs weigh 4 kg less than a DDT)

First one to guess how many razors it has gets a cookie! :D
6?
Incorrect. But you were the first one to guess how many razors it had so here's your cookie! (: :)

No, YOU'RE crazy for using Snapper IIs on a popup!  First one to guess how many razors it has gets a cookie! :D Edit: Good job Mr. AwesumSauce. :P 8 razors, 1 black, DSA, etc. etc. The wedge is good (for Snapper IIs), while the weapon motors are pretty slow, and even slower to retract...but far from useless.  Kind of bounces off Ad-Aware, but still gets under it at least half the time.   INVISIBLE EXTENDERS  Again, bounces off, but somehow Epic Jr. never can get under it - my bot either speeds away or does kind of a 360 to flank Epic Jr., but with me just holding the forward key the whole time. But your wedges are set way too far beneath the chassis as is. A shallower angle will give you better results.
After trying every wedge angle possible pixel by pixel, it was the best wedge. Here's a better camera angle for reference; maybe the previous screenshot makes it look steeper than it really is:

When do we get to see that LW popup you showed in the Battleshots thread? :o
Anyway new bot looks great. Was the idea to keep on hitting opponents with the popup weapons since they would bounce off the wamming rack and back in front of the bot? And...is that just ONE snapper I see? o.o

On the highway the other day, there was a fuel truck with a "GRW" logo stamped all over. :o

 Swords tilted forward 3 notches from 90 degrees, which in testing was the best angle against RPB. I don't really want to use bracket wedges because they can't be angled as far due to their shorter height and bots fly over them as previously mentioned. The wedge is weird; it loses to NWB when I go at full speed from the very beginning of the match, but gets under if I go slow at first and then charge at a medium speed (out of context thread, here I come). Maybe I'll rebuild it with Snapper2 wedges and/or the Snapper IIs somewhere in front of the drive. Half the time, Sage's red snapper fetish confuses me because only half the robots that use all red snappers he says "are terrible" because of it.
I would like one of these "red snappers". :O
